Academics

The institute have a very good command over their respective subjects, as they also promoted research in the institute. Well-qualified professionals teaching their subjects well and sharing their experience with the academics made us learn a lot of things from them. The knowledge they provide in the classrooms, they make you implement the same in the laboratories.We have internal and external, viva and exams. For each semester, we need to qualify for both, but in your final mark sheet, as external marks, both internal and external are displayed.

Have a question related to NIT Patna ?

can we get a cse seat in NIT Patna with 95.485 percentile in jee mains 2025 in obc ncl female category

Greetings! Here's a detailed response to your query

It looks like getting a CSE (Computer Science and Engineering) seat in NIT Patna with a 95.485 percentile in JEE Mains 2025 under the OBC NCL female category is quite possible.

Based on the expected cutoffs for 2025, the closing rank for OBC NCL category in CSE at NIT Patna is predicted to be around 4810. Your percentile of 95.485 should translate to a rank well within this range, especially considering you are a female candidate, which might give you a slight advantage due to category-specific reservations.

However, these are just expected cutoffs. The actual ranks can vary depending on the difficulty of the exam and the number of applicants. To be sure, keep an eye on the official JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) counselling process and the actual cutoff ranks released after each round. You have a good chance, so prepare well for the counselling!

Which college is better for civil engineering nit patna aur nit Silchar

Both NIT Patna and NIT Silchar are reputed for Civil Engineering, but the better choice depends on various factors. NIT Patna has an advantage in location, with better industry exposure and internship opportunities due to its proximity to major construction hubs. It also has strong faculty and research opportunities. NIT Silchar, however, boasts a larger, greener campus and strong placement records, especially in government and PSU sectors. If you prefer better connectivity and internships, NIT Patna is ideal. For a peaceful campus with solid academics, NIT Silchar is a great option. Both offer good career prospects in civil engineering.

Can I get nit patna at 70 percentile

Hello Akansha,

At 70 percentile in JEE Mains, your chances of getting NIT Patna are low, but here are some key points to consider:

General Category: Unlikely to get core branches like CSE, ECE, or Mechanical.
Home State Quota: If you are from Bihar, you may have slightly better chances in lower-demand branches.
Category Reservation: SC/ST/PwD candidates may have better chances with relaxed cutoffs.
Special Rounds: Participate in CSAB/Special Rounds for better chances.
Alternative Options: Consider GFTIs or state engineering colleges for backup.

Wishing you the best !
